The specific embodiment
Referring to graphic closed-loop 50 among graphic lid 20 and Fig. 7-10 among Fig. 1-5, illustrate closing cap assembly 18.The state closing cap assembly 18 that comprises lid 20 and closed-loop 50 is expressed as combination in Fig. 6-12 after.The use of the closed component 18 that is associated with container 30 illustrates according to Figure 13-16.Fig. 6 illustrates first embodiment of closing cap assembly 18, expression lid 20 and the closed-loop with different circumferential width protrusions 50.Be envisioned that said closed-loop 50 also has other embodiment; Comprise that expression is symmetrical set and has second embodiment of the protrusion 58 of same circumference width around said inner component 54 among Fig. 7-11, and represent the 3rd embodiment of the protrusion between 62 81 among Figure 12 along circumference in tine.
Said lid 20 is formed first element of closing cap assembly 18.Shown in Fig. 1-6, lid 20 comprises top 22 and lower part 24.This lower part 24 has the excircle sidewall that ends at loop mapping parts 26.Said lower part 24 is illustrated in figure 1 as Unitarily molded skirt section, and 22 outward radials extend and away from this top from said top in this skirt section.Said lower part 24 comprises ridge 79, and this ridge 79 arranges that near the inner circumferential surface 31 of lid 20 said lower part 24 is used for selectively around inner component 54 cooperations of ring 50, and is shown in figure 15, will be described in detail below.
On the inner circumferential surface 31 of lid 20, also be equipped with fastening structure 28, and usually and top 22 combine, although this fastening structure also possibly comprise the part of lower part 24 at least.Said fastening structure 28 is illustrated as the screw thread that has like standard 434 and 439.Yet any screw thread or latch-up structure can use.Counter structure engagement on this fastening structure 28 and the container 30, shown in figure 14.The standard thread 32 of container 30 is illustrated as fastening structure 28 engagements with lid 20.
Liner 34 places on the downside of lower part 22 of lid 20, and when cap assemblies 18 correctly is sealed in when cooperating container 30, liner 34 forms sealing with container edge 36.Said liner 34 can be by poly-vinyl, polypropylene, or a kind of suitable fluoropolymer (fluroropolymer) (like ETFE and PTFE), or other polymeric materials with elastic-like of selecting according to the expection material of container 30 cappings are processed.Said liner 34 provides compressive layer, forms the protection between cap assemblies 18 and container 30 and container 30 contents, and is shown in figure 14.Be illustrated as and shear liner (cut liner), yet packing ring that other are known or molded plastic liners can be used.
As shown in Figure 4, the external peripheral surface 38 on top 22 comprises a plurality of ribs 40 that longitudinal axis B-B arranges that are parallel to.Said rib 40 provides and has grasped structure, thereby when closing or open container 30, can on lid 20, act on the moment of torsion that unanimity is arranged.The needs of adjustment probably define narrower acceptable torque range.Said rib 40 allows torque wrench " to sting " firmly lid 20, and in assembling process, applies the moment of torsion of consistent size.In assembling process, when role of inspection during in the moment of torsion of lid 20, through having the rib of aligned identical, rib can provide lucky cooperation to dial torque wrench.Be appreciated that any structure that is used to grasp lid 20 can use, comprise the breach of darker rib, different shape, from the projection of the outstanding different shape of external peripheral surface 38 or the surface of other suitable quality.The external peripheral surface 38 of lid 20 can also form different shapes, comprises the polygon (not shown) with a plurality of limits.
Lid 20 can be processed by rigidity or semi-rigid polymeric material, like polyimide resin, polypropylene, polyamide (nylon) or other similar materials, or metal, like aluminium.Though can use several different methods to process lid 20, preferably use moulding.
Closed-loop 50 is second element of closing cap assembly 18.The embodiment of this ring self illustrates in Fig. 7-11, and relevant with closing cap 20 in Fig. 6,12,14 and 15.Fig. 6 illustrates first embodiment of cap assemblies 18, the closed-loop 50 of expression lid 20 and the protrusion with different circumferential widths.Also can be contemplated to said closed-loop 50 and can also have other embodiments; Comprise that Fig. 7-11 illustrates second embodiment that is symmetrical set and has the protrusion 58 of same circumference width around inner component 54, and Figure 12 illustrates the 3rd embodiment that places two ribs 81 between the tine 62 along circumference.Said closed-loop 50 can be processed by the rigid material of the reversible bending of ability, like polypropylene or poly-vinyl or other polymeric materials, is preferably polypropylene.Although can use several different methods to process said closed-loop, preferably use moulding.
Said closed-loop 50 comprises exterior part 52 and inner component 54, and said exterior part 52 is suitable for selectively cooperating with the loop mapping parts 26 of said lid 20, and said inner component 54 is provided with near the inside face 56 of said lid lower part 24, and is shown in figure 15.Before opening container 30 at first, a plurality of fragility adaptor unions 70 selectively make inner component 54 be fastened to exterior part 52.
Said inner component 54 has at least one protrusion 58, and this protrusion radially inwardly and extend upward ends at outward flange 60.At least one tine 62 is inwardly radially outstanding from said inner component 54, and ends at the outward flange 64 of outward flange 60 tops that are positioned at protrusion 58, and is shown in figure 15.Although in graphic embodiment (Fig. 9), protrusion 58 ends at the below of the upper limb 61 of exterior part 52, and in some embodiments, as long as protrusion 58 is positioned at the below at the edge 64 of tine 62, protrusion 58 can extend down the top of upper limb 61.In other words, the protrusion 58 of embodiment shown in Figure 9 does not extend on the upper limb 61, thereby in Fig. 9, can't see; (not shown) in other embodiments, protrusion 58 can extend on the upper limb 61, but still is positioned at the below at the edge 64 of tine 62.
Through making the radially inside groove 68 of outstanding projection 66 interlock seal cover cap lower parts 24 of exterior part 52, said exterior part 52 is anchored on the position (Figure 15) on the loop mapping parts 26 of lid 20.Projection 66 is around exterior part 52 circumference (Fig. 7), and can also be with the groove 68 of suitable manner bending with interlock lower part 24 when can rigid fit be provided with sized.Exterior part 52 also can be anchored on above-mentioned position through other modes, comprises the use adhesives, exchanges protrusion and groove like glue, sonic welding or between the exterior part 52 of ring 50 and the loop mapping parts 26.
As will be described more in detail below, when with lid 20 when container 30 is removed, exterior part 52 is with after inner component 54 separates, exterior part 52 can keep and is fastened on the lid 20.The loop mapping parts 26 of the inclined-plane 69 of said loop mapping parts 26 through guaranteeing lid 20 can not interfered with the inner component that separates 54, and lid 20 is uncrossed adds a cover again and provide, shown in figure 15.
As stated, before opening container 30 at first, use a plurality of fragility adaptor unions 70, inner component 54 can selectively be connected with exterior part 52.Graphic each fragility adaptor union 70 is the triangle protrusion, and this protrusion is anchored on exterior part 52, makes the tip relatively of fragility adaptor union 70 be connected in said inner component 54.A plurality of fragility adaptor unions 70 preferably along the circumferential edges 72 of exterior part 52 symmetrically at interval.Be located on the exterior part 52 and make the tip of fragility adaptor union 70 be connected in inner component 54 through the base portion that makes the fragility adaptor union, when taking place to separate, use triangular shaped this fragility adaptor union 70 that can allow to stay on the exterior part 52.The base portion of fragility adaptor union 70 is arranged on the exterior part 52, can utilizes the lid 20 of band ridge to allow more effective vertical separation.On all fragility adaptor unions 70, apply equal power, through vertically separating of inner component 54 and exterior part 52, each fragility adaptor union 70 generally breaks off simultaneously.When said fragility adaptor union 70 physics break off, can offer user's aud. snl., indication container 30 was not opened before this.Said fragility adaptor union 70 can have other shape, comprises circle, ellipse or polygon.When the various unlatching indicating means of needs, comprise making said fragility adaptor union 70 be in the orientation that vision is more destroyed that these shapes can be used.
The ring 50 of this assembly 18 will illustrate in Figure 14-16 with respect to the fastening of container 30.Through tine 62 and protrusion 58, inner component 54 is fastening in place with respect to the transmission bead on the container neck that is formed on container 30 75 76.More specifically, in case closed-loop 50 cooperates with lid 20, assembly 18 begins to place on the container 30.The mechanism that use is limited fastening structure 28, lid 20 moves down.When standard thread is used for this fastening structure 28, clockwise rotate this lid is moved down, rotate counterclockwise lid is moved up.Protrusion 58 bendings lean against on the upper surface 74 that transmits bead 76 up to tine 62, and protrusion 58 lean against on the lower surface 78 of this transmission bead 76 in transmitting on the bead 76.Like this, transmitting bead 76 is trapped between protrusion 58 and the tine 62.In one embodiment; Effect has upper surface 74 and the effect of the transmission bead 76 of tine 62 to have the pressure between the lower surface 78 of transmission bead 76 of protrusion 58 to guarantee that closed-loop 50 can not move at vertical direction, and stops transmission bead 76 rotations of closed-loop 50 around container 30.
Along with moving and vibration of container in transportation 30, this lid is " reversing " sometimes.If " reversing " that take place is enough big, lid can become and the container that cooperates 30 part unsealings.Thereby 60 pairs of surfaces 78, the edge of protrusion 58 have applied bigger power, drop to minimum with the possibility with this " reversing ".Said protrusion 58 comprises enough length and circumferential width to apply necessary drag, still keeps rationally between inner component 54 and exterior part 52 through fragility adaptor union 70 simultaneously to connect.
Usually, tine 62 leans against on the upper surface 74 that transmits bead 76.They prevent that closed-loop 50 from further moving down.In some embodiments, can apply bigger power, so that closing cap 18 is dropped to minimum with respect to container 30 overtighten possibilities.Yet in this case, allowance deviation is even more important.Usually, however the liner 34 of downside that is positioned at the top 22 of lid 20 is used to prevent the overtighten lid of user when fastening cover.This realizes when container edge 36 engages with liner 34 through in the fastening process of lid 20.Shown in figure 15, the ridge 79 that is positioned on the lower part 24 of lid 20 is used for linking to each other with inner component 54, makes inner component 54 stable, and the vertical power on the exterior part 52 is minimized.
In the embodiment shown in Fig. 6-12, inner component 54 diagrams have four tines 62 that make progress and extend internally, and this tine around inner component 54 symmetrically at interval.Closed-loop 50 can comprise any amount of tine 62 according to closed-loop being held in place required power.It is understandable that, only tine 62 extend inward as necessary, to contact with the upper surface 74 that transmits bead 76.
In the graphic embodiment of majority, be provided with a plurality of protrusions 58 between two adjacent tines 62 circumferentially.In the first embodiment, describe in further detail with reference to figure 6, three unequal a little protrusions 80,84 and 90 in this interval are arranged as following.In second embodiment shown in Fig. 7-11, the protrusion that has three intervals to equate.In the 3rd embodiment shown in figure 12, protrusion 81 along circumference between two tines 62.
It is understandable that the outward flange 60 of protrusion 58 can form different circumferential widths, and is as shown in Figure 6.From the clockwise direction of first tine 84, first protrusion 80 with first upper limb 82 is near first tine 84.From the clockwise direction of second tine 88, second protrusion 84 with second upper limb 86 is near second tine 88.The 3rd protrusion 90 with the 3rd upper limb 92 is near second protrusion 84.The circumferential length of the 3rd upper limb 92 probably equals the circumferential length of first upper limb 82.
Pattern shown in Figure 6 is through allowing on fragility adaptor union 70, to apply uniformly vertically power; And it is generally more efficient on the fragility adaptor union 70 that fractures; Simultaneously also through the bigger rigidity of structure is provided to inner component, thereby reversing of undesirable inner component 54 dropped to minimum.Especially, pattern shown in Figure 6 comprises the relatively little protrusion 90 of big relatively protrusion 84, first, the 94 and second relatively little protrusion 80 at interval on first circumferencial direction.Fragility adaptor union 70 places between tine 62 and the big relatively protrusion 84.Another fragility adaptor union places between the first relatively little protrusion 90 and the second relatively little protrusion 80.
When storing some hazardous chemicals or being mixed together, because chemical substance is unstable or incompatible, violent chemical reaction can take place.According to hazard level, the classification of inconsistent chemical substance should be isolated from each other in storage process.
Obturator 20 also has an advantage with the fact that closed-loop 50 forms separately respectively, and the closed-loop 50 with different colours is provided.In so a kind of scheme, red relevant with flammable liquid, blueness is solely used in deletrious chemical substance, and yellow relevant with the oxidizer material, white is relevant with corrosive chemical, and grey is relevant with common chemical storage.Other color schemes that are used for chemical substance group or other liquid products are also applicable to closed-loop 50, usually according to the packing that is applied in Product labelling or other any special use fields.
It is visible that closed-loop 50 is enough to, and being provided at the effective ways of inspection contents hazard level in the special dimension, and do not need to go over head time to check the label of each container.Because the color of closed-loop 50 can see that from the top of container 30 closed-loop 50 also lets the user can not need remove each container 30 and reading tag, just can check the hazard level of container package.
Can understand that the second embodiment (not shown) of lid 20 comprises the top 22 of moulding lid 20, not have the skirt section that limits lower part 24.Lower part 24 can be all similar on size and dimension with top 22.In other words, the radial width at the outside face of lid 20 22 places on top can be basic identical with the radial width of lower part 24.The interval that can limit inner component 54 through the top 22 that forms lid 20 contacts with the screw thread 32 that allows container 30, the interval that provides inner component 54 to need simultaneously.A kind of method that realizes this is the top 22 that forms lid 20 with the material with thicker cross section.
The replacement embodiment of the mechanism that is limited fastening structure 28 comprises when cap assemblies 18 rotates counterclockwise, and cap assemblies 18 is moved down; When cap assemblies 18 clockwise rotates, cap assemblies 18 is moved up.Fastening structure 28 can comprise allow the user promote downwards cap assemblies 18 on the transmission bead 76 of container 30 and in the clockwise direction or anticlockwise direction reverse structure with locking.It is understandable that cap assemblies 18 can be pushed down, and fastening structure is not provided on transmission bead 76.Cap assemblies 18 unclamps through user's upward movement.
A kind of lid 20 is selectively comprised the steps with the method that separate at the position of the neck of container 30 75 contacts at cap assemblies 18 from container 30.In a state after fastening, the exterior part 52 of closed-loop 50 selectively contacts with lid 20, and the inner component 54 of closed-loop 50 is anchored on container neck 75.In the state after this is fastening, inner component 54 has at least one protrusion 58 and at least one tine 62 that selectively contacts with container neck 75.Protrusion 58 inwardly and extend upward and ends at outward flange 60.Tine 62 part 54 internally is inwardly outstanding, ends at the outward flange 64 of outward flange 60 tops that are positioned at protrusion 58.Exterior part 52 links to each other through fragility adaptor union 70 with inner component 54.Fragility attaching parts 70 places inner component 54 between exterior part 52.
When lid 20 moves up and transmitted upwards shearing force in 50 last times of closed-loop along screw thread,, reverse lid 20 along anticlockwise direction fragility adaptor union 70 is fractureed through vertically moving of lid 20.When upwards transmission of exterior part 52 (keeping) by the projection in the groove 68 66, supporting the cooperation that transmits bead 76 between protrusion 58 and the tine 62 and can prevent that inner component 54 from moving up, this will be in following discussion.Vertically power makes fragility adaptor union 70 bear shearing upwards, and this fragility adaptor union 70 is fractureed.
Said method comprises: through tine 62 and protrusion 58 are set between upper surface 74 that transmits bead 76 and lower surface 78 respectively, thereby the inner component 54 that prevents closed-loop 50 moves up or down on the container neck 75 of container 30.
When fragility adaptor union 70 fractureed, protrusion 58 prevented that inner component 54 from upwards sliding from container neck 75, simultaneously tine 62 prevent inner component 54 from container neck 75 to lower slider.
